"Kodama is widely experienced & her performances of sonatas she calls 'lyrical islands' are graceful, fluent & musically transparent. Everything proceeds in a faultless flow of sound & in this sense her credentials are impeccable. Never bearing down heavily on the music, she always allows Beethoven his own voice."
(Gramophone, March 2011)
"Kodama immediately earns the listener's attention with a poised & well-observed account of the 1st movement of the G major Sonata, Op. 78. The following Andante is made limpidly expressive, & a nimble & truculent finale, in which Kodama's tempo & dynamic variances are arresting & convincing, rounds the work off. This sets the pattern for a very enjoyable recital during which Kodama unfailingly judges things to a nicety. She finds depth of utterance at the opening of the F sharp work, & then her measured speed for the Allegro (here very much 'ma non troppo') is very affecting. Throughout, what really comes across is her affection for the music, her wish to give it time so that we may enjoy its shape, harmonies & details. She has the imagination & confidence to point things up without exaggeration & to reveal just how much there is in these seemingly slight works, an abundance of invention & development thereof."
(Colin Anderson, International Record Review, November 2010)
"Kodama is equipped to deliver as few pianists on the present scene are, include style, sensitivity to nuance, the ability to discern when to provide a lighter touch and when to apply a bolder characterization, the ability to let the individual melodic line sing forth in all its glory or subside into one of those Beethoven silences that can be more eloquent than sound."
(Dr. Phil Muse, Audio Video Club of Atlanta, October 2010)
